One Piece: Starting as the First Mate of the Lothar Pirates

The skin and flesh on the chest were turned inside out, as was the back; a damaged heart could even be seen through the chest.

"Ah... Ahhhh"

The two bears, the black bear leader and the brown bear second-in-command, were so frightened on the spot that they were completely terrified.

pat!

Shiki dropped his glass without realizing it, his mouth gaped open, utterly shocked.

"Hey, hey, hey, who on earth hurt you like this, Luo Chuan?" Newgate asked in surprise and anger.

"Tell me, and I'll go kill him right now!" Rocks roared, his anger raging.

"How could this be... such a powerful person as the first mate..."

"First Mate Luo Chuan is a true Thor!"

"How could such a powerful Lord Luo Chuan..."

The crew members on board all shook their heads in disbelief.

"Quiet down, all of you!" Miss Bakkin snapped.

She took the surgical needle handed to her by her deputy, intending to stitch up Luo Chuan's wound.

But looking at the open wound, her hands trembled uncontrollably, and she didn't know where to begin.

“This kind of injury is simply beyond human treatment,” a ship doctor shook his head.

"What did you say?!" Lockes, his eyes bloodshot, immediately pinned the speaker to the deck. "I don't care what methods you use, you have to bring Luo Chuan back. If he dies, you will all be executed!"

The ship's medical team was filled with filth and jealousy.

A heart that has been pierced and destroyed—even a god couldn't heal that kind of injury!

Just when he was filled with despair and thought there was no way to reverse the situation.

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm just lying down for a bit to rest, don't make a fuss!" A weak but calm voice rang out.

"Boss... Boss is awake! Boss isn't dead!!!"

Seeing Luo Chuan open his eyes again, the second brown bear was filled with surprise.

"You idiot second brother, what's there to be happy about..."

The black bear leader slapped his heartless younger brother.

The second brown bear didn't know, but he did know that this was... the dying man's last burst of energy before death.

"Luo Chuan, you have made great contributions to the size of the Rocks Cruises F. From now on, no one on this ship is qualified to succeed you. The Rocks Cruises F will always have only one first mate."

Lockes, holding Luo Chuan's hand, was a tough guy who was always fearless and never shed a tear, but at this moment his eyes were completely red and filled with tears.

“You said it yourself!” Luo Chuan laughed.

"Luo Chuan, you are one of the few partners on this ship whom I truly trust and can entrust my back to. I never realized it until now... I know that you are the person I've been looking for since I set sail. I set sail for the sake of meeting you."

Young Newgate, the white-bearded man, grasped Luo Chuan's other hand and said earnestly.

"Hey, Newgate, what you're saying... is so cheesy, it's giving me goosebumps," Luo Chuan grinned.

"First mate, you promised me you'd take me to experience being a Celestial Dragon too, and I've been waiting for that, but..." Shiki squeezed out a few crocodile tears.

"Waaaaah, First Mate, how could you leave us so young!"

"You are one of the two core members of our Locusts F, we can't do without you!"

"Damn it, which bastard from somewhere did such a thing!"

The more than two hundred logistics personnel of the Lockheed Regiment all had their heads down, some with mournful faces, others letting out angry howls...

"You bunch of bastards, what are you doing here wailing?" Luo Chuan said irritably.

“Yes, consider it a rehearsal.” Shiki nodded.

"Wait a minute." Luo Chuan finally realized what was happening.

Rocks's sincere promise, Newgate's cheesy displays of affection, and Shiki and the other crew members'...feelings...they thought they were going to die!!!

At this moment, Luo Chuan felt as if a million alpacas were galloping and howling in his heart.

He also experienced what it felt like to be mourned and sent off while still alive.

For a moment, Luo Chuan was completely petrified.

His motionless posture once again aroused the irritation of the gossip community.

"First mate, rest in peace. We will definitely avenge you."

Young Shiki stepped forward and brushed his hand across Luo Chuan's eyelids, intending to manually close his eyes.

However, despite several attempts, Luo Chuan's eyes remained open, bright and alert.

"Oh no, oh no, the first mate died with his eyes open. Oh right, I know, he still hasn't told us who killed him. No wonder he can't rest in peace." Shiki shook his head.

"Shiki, you bastard, who are you saying died with their eyes open?" Luo Chuan laughed in anger, realizing that Shiki had just manually helped him die with his eyes open.

"Holy crap, Luo Chuan, you're still alive?" Schipton was startled and jumped into the air.

"Even if you die, I won't die," Luo Chuan said irritably.

"This……"

The emotions that the more than two hundred members of the Lox Legion had been building up were abruptly cut short by his words.

What...what happened?

No...no longer dead?

Should we continue crying?

"Luo Chuan, you..."

Rocks and Newgate also looked at Luo Chuan with suspicion.

Their Observation Haki allowed them to sense that Luo Chuan's previously weak aura had now regained its strength.

Are they really immortal?

Thinking back to their earlier words, they both felt their faces burning.

"A miracle! This is simply a miracle!"

Just then, a member of the ship's medical team couldn't help but shout out in shock.

"The first mate's chest wound is actually... actually healing on its own, and even his heart is repairing itself. This is simply a medical miracle!"

Another ship's doctor couldn't help but cry out in surprise.

"What kind of monster are you?!"

Miss Bakkin looked at Luo Chuan in surprise.

"As I just said, it's just a minor fatal wound, nothing serious!" Luo Chuan said calmly.

For an average person, this is a serious injury that would be enough to kill them a hundred times over.

But for Luo Chuan, this level of injury wouldn't kill him.

Not long ago, when Luo Chuan was on the Red Earth Continent, his wounds stopped bleeding and healed.

After returning to the ship, the wound suddenly reopened, due to the temporary switch in abilities.

With the power of the Kraken, Luo Chuan's body possesses super-fast regeneration, allowing any wound to heal quickly.

However, at any given moment, Luo Chuan can only use one ability.

In other words, when teleporting back to the ship, the super-fast regeneration power is temporarily offline.

Normally, nothing should have happened in such a short time.

But what Luo Chuan didn't expect was that Im's demonic energy still remained in his body.

Previously, the demonic energy had been suppressed by the power of super-rapid regeneration. But when the power switched, the demonic energy that had been lurking in Luo Chuan's body started acting up again, reopening his wounds.

That's why he just fell backward, covered in blood.

However, just before he collapsed, Luo Chuan switched accounts in time and reloaded his Kraken abilities.

With the rapid regeneration ability of YiD, his condition gradually improved.

"So, you're really not dead?" Shiki asked uncertainly.

"Nonsense." Luo Chuan rolled her eyes at him.

After a brief silence, a huge cheer erupted.

"Oh my gosh, that's great! The boss isn't dead! To celebrate, I'm going to eat a hundred honey cakes!" The brown bear boss danced with glee.

"You just want to eat cake, don't you?" the black bear leader couldn't help but complain.

"Hahaha, I knew it! The first mate wouldn't give up so easily." (A comment from a seaman)

"Who was crying so loudly just now, saying that the first mate died young?" someone said, glancing at him sideways.

"It wasn't me, it definitely wasn't me!"

Hahaha~

"As the old saying goes, evil deeds last for a thousand years. We, the Rocks Company, are all evil, and none of us will die."

"Get lost! You're the one who's a menace!"

The atmosphere on the deck was very cheerful.

"Captain, shall we raise a glass to the return of our eternal first mate?" Luo Chuan smiled and raised his glass to Lockes.

"Hahaha, damn it!" Rocks laughed.

Words spoken are like water spilled.

From now on, the Rocks Pirates will only have one first mate.

Newgate

Luo Chuan then turned to the young white-bearded man.

"Cheers to our everlasting friendship!"

The white-bearded man gritted his teeth; he had also thought Luo Chuan was going to die, which was why…

He was wise all his life and had never said anything so cheesy. He was still embarrassed.

But... it's truly a cause for celebration that the brother you could rely on is alive.

"Kuralalala, fuck!"

“Hey, why don’t you join me?” Shi Qi stepped forward.

"Shiki, damn it, you were just telling everyone I was going to die," Luo Chuan said with a laugh.

"Hahahaha" Her voice was hoarse.

"Hahaha, it's a pity I don't know where my mother is either, otherwise I would guarantee to send her to your bed, First Mate!" Shiki winked and made faces, not feeling pressured at all.

Luo Chuan was completely helpless against such a stubborn person.
